Hello @Azimuth, @bluter, @Pat Puffer I hope all is well. So I sprayed my flowering girls with Dr Bonner's Castile soap 5 tablespoons mixed with 1 gallon RO water (2% solution) three times (one month ago), I also upped the amount of SNS-209 to 1 tablespoon per gallon of water every watering. No more thrips! My wife is concerned that my buds may be toxic or make me ill now, due to the soap... I did rinse plants/buds with water a couple of times. I should be Harvesting in the next week or two. I will be doing a four bucket bud wash. Do you think there is any need for concern?The true soaps can be used straight through flower, but only work as a contact killer. They work by dissolving the exoskeleton of the bugs but you have to spray them directly to have any effect. A bug landing on a freshly sprayed leaf will be largely unaffected. To use, spray on and under the leaves in every nook and cranny you can, let dry then rinse off with clean water.
